I wish we could do polls here, such as, do you favor marijuana legalization, yes or no. Then, have comments on that subject.

I get the feeling many here have the libertarian view of marijuana.

We live in a republic.

I’m not sure what business the US Government has in deciding what drugs I can or can’t take, but, if it is a Federal Law it should be the same everywhere.

California and New York voted for a different president than say Michigan. If the California State house now passes a law that says they don’t recognize President Trump it is meaning-less. The same with drug laws that go against the federal laws.

No business - the Constitution grants them no such authority.
